    1. Marvin the fish survives again

      by , 09-27-2010 at 07:40 PM (Amen, the thunderbolt in the dark void....)
      I am taking care of my fish tank. I'm looking inside and admiring all the different colored fish. I turn around, turn back and am horrified as one of my fish, Marvin, has jumped onto the floor. IRL Marvin is a beta, and very small. In the dream, Marvin was a huge gigantic blue fish swirling with all sorts of colors. He was looking at me as he was laying on the floor. I grabbed a towel and scooped him up, putting him back into the tank. He began moving again and I was really glad that he wasn't dead.

      I looked down and saw that my dog, Daisy, was chewing on one of my new kittens - Lily. I heard a crunching sound and screamed and ran to where she was and took Lily away from her. I thought she was dead and then realized that she wasn't. She soon began to stir in my hands. I looked back to the fish tank where some of the fish had just given birth to hundreds of little baby fish who were all swimming in schools, swooping and diving all around the tank. They were some of the most beautiful colors I have ever seen.
    2. Night of 9/26 - Murder & Hoover

      by , 09-27-2010 at 02:36 PM (Grischkaja's world of dreams and mysteries)
      Hello I don't have much time today so I will stick to the basics:
      1. I'm in a field with an DC. It's in the 50's. The DC comes home (ex-prisoner of war) and looks for an particular place. I help him and we find a place behind an abounded house. We dig with our bare hands and find a door. Behind there are two or three dead bodies hidden under clothes. It's in fact an secret of someone in the near village, who has murdered before war two or three persons. The DC wants to revenge on this person by uncovering his bloody secret, because he denounced him of being a resistant during war to get rid of him.
      2. I'm cleaning my carpet with an hoover, but I don't see that it isn't my real carpet (it's white and not red as it should). The hoover is very powerful and it cleans the carpet perfectly: the carpet quickly looked like new. Suddenly the hoover doesn't work anymore. I'm wondering why ans take a look on the machine itself: lints are coming out of the hoover, in fact it has imploded or something like that

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID FALSE AWAKENING PRECOG

      Quite a long night...

      23:35 GMT – Sleep

      Clothes shop
      I’m with my mom on some kind of clothes shop or whatever. There’s a long row of cabins for trying-out clothes. I’m on one undressing and she is pressing me to speed up. There are some guys around that are either watching us or pressuring us to go away (not clear).

      Rotten pumpkin
      I’m on some kind of yard and there’s a big tree in the middle. A group of guys, some I recognize, like Alfredo, who are sitting on some branches to my right side. Down on the ground I’m trying to get Alfredo’s attention but some other guy appears and starts telling me I shouldn’t waste my time on him. That he and this other guy who used to work with him are full of schemes. I tell him I know him well enough to know that much is just misunderstandings. Then this guy is on the left corner of the yard, where there were two big calabashes and picks one. As he squeezes it, telling me it’s rotten, the content spills all over the floor and is a smelly gushy thing. I actually come closer... but then I don’t remember what happened.

      Encounter with Mosh?
      Then I’m inside this big black truck. Some guy drove me over but right now we’re parked on the side of the road and he is outside doing something (maybe peeing?). We’re on a semi-desert place, no houses, just sand around. As another big truck passes by us on the road, there’s a panel on the truck where a pink or red light starts blinking, like signalling the proximity of something and I realise it’s this other big truck that just passed by. They signal the presence to each other. The guy on the other truck probably just saw the same signal on his truck and he breaks violently and makes a very fast U-turn.
      The guy who is with me also sees this and runs to “our” truck. As the other guy parks they both meet outside and make quite a party for finding each other. I am now coming out of the truck and I realise I have feelings for this guy who is with me. I approach him by his right side and kind of encircle him with my arms. Both guys are with shorts and a t-shirt and actually look very similar. Then the guy who arrived looks at me surprised, like asking who am I. And “my” guy says I’m his new girl friend. I don’t recall he mentioning his or my name but then he clearly introduces me to his friend and says: “This is Mosh” and I’m like "what? I know that name!"
      But Mosh is not really accepting me. He keeps looking sideways to me. Later we are on some building, looks like an office floor, people are running around working on something and I’m on some common living room on the end of some corridor, where there’s coffee machine and so on. I’m planning to make some coffee but then I see Mosh at the other end of the corridor, again not looking so friendly to me. Then he sends out this kind of energy blast that comes in my direction. It’s kind of transparent wave that is about to hit me, but I block it and it doesn’t hit me or harm me. I tell him to please stop it, because he has no reasons to distrust me. He then steps back a little, maybe because “my” guy then appears and Mosh behaves better in front of his friend, and maybe also because his friend seems to fully trust me and even have feelings for me. Then we start making coffee and I climb some chair to get some toffees that are on some high shelf.


      3:50 GMT

      Fragment
      I am at a conference room with glass walls all around. I spot trees outside and think it looks like some room I've been at the European Parliament.

      Jumping over ponds
      I am now at some kind of amphitheatre and recall that I’ve seen this before and think I know what’s going to happen next, although I don’t really recognise this from RL. I chose the place not on the auditorium but on some tables near the door, with chairs that actually sit me with my back to the stage and not really looking at it. I know someone will come and sit there to, someone that I must meet. The guy arrives and I tell him I was expecting him. We befriend and then we go outside. There’s some patio with square ponds between large square stones and we have fun jumping over these ponds. Some other friends are joining us and then... (gap).

      Friend on airplane
      It’s now dark outside ad I talk to some people (I think the group from before) when I see this airplane flying over our heads. It is low enough that I can its windows and I notice the windows are open, as if it was a car and people are leaning over to see outside. I see among the persons, my Italian friend António. I ask my friends to excuse me but I have to go talk to him. So I lift off and fly to meet him. The plane landed on some sky platform and I meet my friend there. He sees me and comes to me but has to stay behind some barrier, separating us. I ask him how he is and how’s is life going since last time we spoke. He is wearing eye-liner and is not very talkative. He just smiles, says everything’s fin and that he must now leave. I tell him my mom says hi to him and then he turns away.

      Underground kitchen
      When coming down again, I land inside some underground kitchen and I see two black girls very busy cooking. I try not to disturb them and look for an exit. But the youngest one spots me and gets really pissed off. She chases me around, looking angry and I tell her to please just point me the way out and I will leave. But she doesn’t. Then the older one comes in my rescue and tells the other she is being stupid. She had actually blocked the door, so I don’t see it, just to scare me out. Still, when I finally see the door, I don’t go out. The older girl allows me to stay and I sit in a corner, like under some table, with a box of crayons. I draw Harry Potter or some other character from the story and soon I realise there’s a lot of people gathered around mocking me for drawing this. I don’t understand what’s the fuss and I say “why not? I even like Harry Potter. Me and half of the world’s population. Don’t you? At all?”. And then everybody goes quiet and leaves me alone.

      5:30 GMT

      High-school gym
      I’m on some high-school and I see a gym just in front of me. For some reason I’m planning to go up a ramp on my right side but as I start going up I change my mind and instead enter the gym.
      There’s some basketball game going on and I just walk around the field, watching it. I see some familiar faces from my high-school and I poke a fat guy who was my colleague since primary school. But somehow I scared him and he bumped with his head against some obstacle. He starts crying out loud why am I so evil, why did I hit me and so on. I feel that he is crazy, but people seem to believe him. Then another girl also starts complaining saying i also hurt her some other day and everybody is now looking angry at me that I’m such a bitch. The interesting thing is that I start believing them and soon I am also crying and asking their forgiveness. I know I didn’t do it on purpose, that I’m not really evil, but they convinced me I actually hurt them (although I’m sure it was accidentally).


      Fragment
      I’m going back to a hostel I’m staying in and being followed by a guy. I think he is angry at me and wants to harm me, but no. When we arrive there he just asks me if I stay longer or leave. He wants to ask me something or needs something from me.

      Hairdresser, grilled-burgers and Jared Leto
      I’m sitting on some hairdresser or something and a guy is cutting my hair, not much, just making some hairstyle. I look into the mirror and I have long, long blond yellow hair. My face is my RL face and in fact doesn’t look so bad with this hair. I then see my boyfriend there and ask him if he is ok with this hair. He is happy, at least is long as I used to have it before. He doesn’t even care if it’s blond.
      Then I see some pics on the wall, like celebrity pics and recognize one as being a high-school colleague and the other is Jared Leto. Then my friend Rita comes along and says “No way, if there’s pics of these guys here, I’m surely on some of the pics too!” I ask her why and she tells me she used to hang around with them. And we indeed find 2 or 3 pics with her on. She tells me she can introduce me to them and I accept.
      Meanwhile this hairdresser is having fun – he has developed a prank spray. It works like this: he sprays people’s hair with it, it forms a kind of layer that gives hair a wet look, but later on when the person is on the street, the water layer collapses and showers down people’s face and shoulders. He just did it to a costumer and it’s quite fun when it bursts.
      So then I go with Rita to meet her celebrity friends and we end up on this grill-restaurant – looks quite low level – and these two guys are inside ordering from the menu. I hesitate going inside, because they have all sorts of dead animals in line to grill. A big octopus rolled up around two sticks is the next to be grilled.
      I stay outside where a guy is working for this restaurant grilling burgers to passing by people. I ask him if he has any veggie option and he looks at me as if I’m crazy. I wasn’t expecting a yes just wanted to bring his attention to the possibility.
      Then I give him some tips and he actually goes get the vegetables and makes really yummy veggie burgers that start attracting lots of people. In 5 minutes he is totally surrounded by people devouring his delicious creations and he feels like he just discovered his vocation. I’m happy for him.


      7:00 GMT

      Fragments
      I’m brooming my home but soon realise I’m not getting it clean so I grab the vaccum cleaner but it gets blocked by pieces of foam all the time.

      I remember washing my teeth with a key (the safe deposit key type, flat and square). Because it has a square surface with reliefs, I found it quite efficient to clean my teeth.


      My old primary school
      I am outside my old primary school, which left me a lot of nostalgia and is now transformed into private housing and hence I have no access to it for visiting. [in RL to] I see the old principal of the school. He now has his workshop and tools stored outside on the street, since he lost his school. I also see they covered the lovely terrace where we used to have our gym. Not even possible to look inside as there’s no windows. I feel sad.

    4. 24 Sep: Political speech and endangered tribe

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID FALSE AWAKENING PRECOG


      00:00 GMT – Sleep

      Political speech and endangered tribe
      A guy I know, who is president of a political party has presented a proposal in the Parliament and he is causing a lot of fuss. [this came from an open letter this guy actually wrote about a petition to present to the Parliament and which I read during the day.]
      Then I’m on an excursion with him. On the way to wherever we’re going he is telling a story to all the participants- supposed to be with a moral to it but nobody is taking it seriously. He then looks at me looking for some support and I nod and smile, showing I totally understand what he means. We both look through the window nostalgic, almost as if looking deep into each other.
      Then we arrive at a place in the jungle where there’s a tribe whose culture is disappearing. The excursion people are gathered around a table, eating some delicacies they are serving to us and I am completely obsessed about some yellow cookies that are quickly disappearing – I take all the last ones for me!
      We’re on some kind of house carved on a stone wall and through a hole (kind of tiny window for the air to pass) I see a tribe kid peeping. I feel curious to meet him and go outside after him. I see an old lady still living in accordance with their traditions but the youngsters I see are polluted with western culture.
      I sit down with some kids (don’t know if it the same kid I saw before, these seem older) and we talk about how they live their culture and they couldn’t care less, they don’t feel attracted to the old ways anymore, think it’s boring. I feel sad that we, foreigners, are more aware of the beauty and profoundness of their traditional and wise relationship with the cosmos than they are.

      23:00 GMT – Sleep

      Preparing travel
      I’m organizing something, like a travel and comparing different places/venues. I’m on a tall building and then I’m looking through the window because there’s something going on down there on the street.

      Kids dancing
      I’m with my mom and she’s helping me out with something. We go out and when arriving at her building’s door, a bunch of kids from school next door are putting some show on (actually rehearsing it) in the square in front of school. They are dancing samba in pairs. Strangely my younger cousin J. Is among them, although by now he is already too old for this, but I still see him as a kid. He sees us and feels embarrassed that we also see him.

      Vanity
      I’m going out with some group of colleagues from school. I see myself in a mirror and I look really cute, with short hair and a blue scarf on my head. Still I take some time to adjust the scarf several times to be just perfect.

      3:20 GMT

      Scary grandma’s house
      I’m with mom at my paternal grandma’s house. We’re taking clothes from the clothesline outside. The weather is changing rapidly and really dark clouds are gathering in the sky above us. It gets really dark as night. My mom points to the bell tower close by, where we see this really creepy dark figure and we comment that maybe he’s some shadow, reflection but also that this place has always been a bit scary – we’re always seeing dark figures and feeling “presences” here. There’s another girl in the house and then a car also arrives and a guy comes out of it. Don’t remember what happens then.


      Life and death situations on the mountains
      I’m watching this reporter (like live on TV) in a pick up going down some dangerous road, with a cliff on his left side and I think he is not measuring the danger as he drives with only on hand at too high speed for the conditions of that road. Then of course he is thrown off the road, live on TV and everybody thinks he fell down the cliff, but then I’m transported into the place of the action and I realise he was incredibly lucky as the truck got stuck below on some rocks and we was able to get out and escape. Then I also realise he is with his wife and two kids on the truck and I am even more shocked at his irresponsibility.
      As I help them climb the cliff and we’re on top of it on the road, we are caught by a flood. It’s not yet too violent, but I see a bus being dragged by the water down the road and I also see this black baby girl in the middle of the way. I just have time to grab her and get her out of the way of the bus. She is so cute and I feel that this family I also just helped will adopt her in the nearby future. Then the kid in my arms becomes just a baby head (although perfectly alive) and I think about that being odd (but not enough to become lucid).


      Cat’s guts out
      I’m at some hotel room with friends, just settling in. We are reading this place’s rules and it says in summer we must use an outside common toilet instead of the room’s own toilet. We wonder why and think maybe in summer with the heat, it gets smelly and that’s why they advise to use the outside one.
      Anyway I go to the toilet and my cat is there. He doesn’t seem well. First he pukes and then his head’s skin starts to open from his left eye, leaving his skull and eyeball exposed. I try to keep it closed but it keeps opening more and more. I’m starting to freak out. Then pus is coming out. Then when the ripped skin is already down his back, his internal organs start bloating and coming out. Still the cat is moving, not looking healthy but also not dying. I somehow don’t accept that this is really happening so another healthy version of the cat appears and
      I see the two together and realise I’m dreaming. I feel relieved. Then I think about what to do with lucidity and stupidly I wake up.

      6:30 GMT – Wake up
    6. 26th / 27th September 2010- First full-control lucid!!!

      by , 09-27-2010 at 07:27 AM
      I remember two dreams:

      1) I was taking homework down by my old science teacher. It was for just after lunch that day. But on my way out, I get hit by a car. Therefore, I cannot do my homework. When I get back to the next science lesson, there is a cover teacher. He asks for my homework, but I don't have it. He yells at me and then the normal science teacher appears and says he saw me break my arm. So I don't get into any trouble.

      2) I was standing by my bed when I happened to do the nose-plug reality check. I can breathe through my nose! I've never felt this before! I shout "Increase clarity!" three times, just as an experiment. The first thing I do is jump off my bed. I don't fly (Not very good at it in lucids ) but I do float slowly to the ground. Then, I go to my bedroom door and start to think "When I open this door, There'll be a gorgeous beach", but my dream dad barges in asking if I've done my homework. I go past him and into my sister's bedroom, where I decide that I would like to walk through walls. I walk through the nearest wall, and end up in an unfamiliar bedroom. Just then, I think how nice it would be to be kissed, so a boy appears, and he kisses me, but it's just a regular peck on the lips. I ask for something more romantic, but the dream disappears and I wake up.

    7. February 2010: A girl I liked.

      by , 09-27-2010 at 07:19 AM
      I am at high school, when I see my female friend approaching me, looking nervous and excited. After some small talk, she tells me that she thinks I'm hot. I laugh nervously, saying something along the lines of "okay." She giggles, embracing me as we make out. After about the third kiss, she seems to notice my inexperience with romance, ans says that I "just kissed her." She recommends that I go a bit more slowly, less kissing and more cuddling. At some point, the dream ends.

      Store closing and FAs (Non-lucid)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      Another somehow "decent" night.

      Third:

      I went to the Pata Negra store. When I entered the store, I found out it was almost empty. The store was different from waking. The Bomba rice was in a different place and there was Javier, the owner placing the rice inside a box.

      He told me he forgot to call me to not go to the store. Store was closing out of business. I had my backpack with my Magic The Gathering cards I took my backpack off and I offered my help.
      I started to place the Bomba Rice inside the box when suddenly a little girl came in and bought a chocolate. The register was not there anymore. She placed a few bils and someone gave her change in coins. All the change was all our of one of the racks. I found that very odd.

      I had a FA. My wife told me she had a nice dream and I advised her to write it down. I found out it would be good to write down my recent dream as well. When I was done, I went back to bed. One of my cats vomited a pink liquid. She was running while vomiting and made a big mess. She stopped suddenly and ate a lot of food.

      I had another FA and started to write down dreams. I woke up for real.

      Missed dream signs:
      - The FA.
      - The event at the store.
      - My cats vomiting pink.

      What I would have if lucid:
      - Head for a ToTM.

I am in the 1920's. the racks in the isles are filled with odd items. i go to talk to the clerk. he is standing in front of a wall with pumpkins stacked all across. I try to buy 2 pumpkins but i dont have enough money. I look in my pocket and pull out a penny and a quarter. i walk outside and realize im in my home town. i walk across a small 4-way intersection towards a grocery store from my home town. a car drives by and opens its door. i get inside the car. i talk to a man in the back. i give him the penny and quarter for a charity donation. i look closely at the quarter and see that big bird is on the face of the quarter and the quarter is very rare. i step out of the car and walk away. dream fades off.

    11. Secret Magic Training

      by , 09-27-2010 at 03:20 AM
      Hey Guys! In this DJ is one of my stand out dreams of my life simply because I was with all my friends.



      Last night I had a dream about being in a huge area where all of my music class was. We where all learning different types of Combat. Me and my friend Lachlan where learning energy blasts. After a bit of training my friend Daniel Blair (Who was an elementalist) was showing off and attacking other people.

      I started asking him where do I learn how to do this art of magic. He was a little bit hesitant at first but only because it was far away and he didn't want to get in trouble. He walked us for a bit until I was at my High School. He pointed in the direction of where the teacher was, but the teacher who was previously teaching us was yelling out to us. I couldn't care less and started running towards the elementalist teacher. Lachlan started looking towards our old teacher so I said "Dont worry man, It's a dream, she can't stop us!" At that point I became lucid and was even more keen to learn how to master the elements.

      Once we where at the teacher, I realised it was my music teacher, she was accompanied by a VERY powerful man. What made me think he is powerful, I don't know it was just something about him. I asked the teacher if she would like to teach us the ways of the elements and she kindly accepted. She read out a scripture but the main phrase I heard was "If you smoke vast amounts of marijuana and keep very active and exert your powers, you will become extremely fit." That was the number one rule to be an elementalist. . . Can't complain, haha.

      My dream faded because my mum was outside with the blower. I plan on following the path of an elementalist. For it would be fucking hectic to own people with in dreams.

    12. Random Dream

      by , 09-26-2010 at 11:14 PM
      Hey, I had a dream a couple of days ago, which started with that me and my cousin Meer watched a gossip girl episode on my computer. A second later, we both were on quarter near my neighborhood with some persons that I know. My friend Cengiz was also there, but he disappear one second later. After that we were on a chines restaurant with a lot of people from my last school I went to. I was with 3 other persons. I knew them all, but just remember one of them, which was Linnea from my last class. After a while me and my brother went to buy some hot dog. The price of theme was 5 kr each. If you went a bit further away from the sausage place, you would find an other place. After eating the hot dogs, me and my brother went to sit on a sofa, with 2 others I did not know. We watched TV. The time was now 12 pm and the most of the people had got home, even my little brother. I was alone on a table in the corner of the restaurant. I was waiting for my food, which had not come. After a while came my friend Arash with his food and sat next to me. Then came my friend Denniz with his food and also my friend Can with his food. I don´t remember so good, but my friend Farbod may also have came with his food, or it was my friend Ango. I was starting to get pissed of because my food did not come. So I went to the cashier asked why my meal did not show up. I said it with some anger in my voice. 15 minutes later, they called my dad, the meal was ready, and my father had also bought 12 DVDs movies. I took the half of the movies and went to my table where my friends were sitting. My father went home after that, but he also asked if we wanted to see one of the movies he had bought while we were eating. Don´t remember what we had replied. After we all was done, we went out to the same quarter before. We was just hanging there and suddenly we saw my friend Cengiz stick his head out from some bushes to see which people was there. When he saw that it was his friends he came out with a scooter and rather large soapbox. With that box car he drove over a a big water puddle on the road. When I first saw Cengiz with the soapbox and all I laughed so much I could. Me and my friend Denniz laughed at it very much . Can also laughed a little. The Cengiz came to us and the dream ended.

      Quick note: Sorry for not posting my dreams for the past few days, I got busy.

      Awake Non-Lucid Semi-Lucid

      I'm sitting in my chemistry classroom, but I'm not learning anything. It's like I'm waiting for something... I hear my classmates talking about unimportant stuff behind me. I keep waiting.

      Soon enough, a man walks into the room. He looks travel-worn, and slightly damp. He murmers something to the classteacher and then looks around. "I'll take that one." He says, pointing to me. She nods and I get up, and follow him out the door without any objections.

      [Dream skip - Unknown] I now know that his name is Mason, and he's taken me to what seems like a different world. This place is like nothing I've ever seen before. The turqious walls are made of smooth stone, but they're still jagged, with little ridges across them. Water flows down them, soaks the floor and makes my feet damp. There are several deep pools of water near me.

      We're both leading horses. Mine is a gorgeous chestnut. There's something different about them, but I don't know what yet. We're here to take samples of this newly found water land.

      I hear a hissing sound behind us. We turn and find three mermaids, which don't look friendly. They manage to stand on their tails, which makes them tall and frightening. Their hair is like Medusa, full of snakes. They have wide, gaping mouths, lined with several rows of needle-sharp teeth. They're hissing and... Why are they reaching behind themselves? They pull out thin black bows. One of them is already dead, shot by Mason. But then one of them shoots with blinding speed and he goes down.

      I leap onto the horse. It gallops and then dives into a nearby pool. It's dark and eerie, but I have no other options except getting an arrow in my chest. The horse is a waterhorse! It's so fast underwater. It knows I need to breathe though, so occasionally it dives from a pool and into another. Sometimes I think that there is no other opening, that I'm trapped and am going to drown. But I fear the mermaids more.

      Suddenly Chestnut kicks out and down he sinks, but he's taken a mermaid with him. Shit, it's me or the mermaid and I have no weapons. She can swim fast too, I don't know where to go! I manage to find a surface and get out. I sprint for it. There's another pool, with a strong downwards current. I sigh with relief as I throw myself in. It drags me down, down, down at a crazy speed.


      But then I realise the mermaid is above me. I didn't get pushed down fast enough for her to lose me. I manage to pull myself out of the dream.

    14. 0/4 Sat: Negative Themes and Emotions

      by , 09-26-2010 at 08:30 PM (One Must Imagine Sisyphus Happy)
      I didn't wear my Zeo this night. I felt like a pilot flying a plane without instruments. Also an irregular night because of the nap.

      The Chess Set
      2140: C. This was actually a nap in the late evening, but I'll include it in the night recall tally. Lance and I are cleaning up a chess set that has spilled on the floor. The set looks just like the one I had as a kid with rough wooden pieces of beige and brown. We set up the pieces on the board to easily see if any are missing. The cross on the crown of the white king has broken off. We get all the pieces and decide to play. I'm white, Lance is black. I don't remember the moves but I lose.

      Then our bosses come along and we tell them about the game. But they are only interested in the chess set itself because Chris bought it. They are praising Chris. Lance is upset that they are ignoring the game and I am doubly upset because I also lost. Chris isn't there but I remember that I found his wallet on the ground. It's a rather plain black leather wallet and rather thick. I put it in my desk drawer for safe keeping until he returns on Monday.
      Wow. This dream totally makes sense in a very metaphorical way. Dreams are like that.

      Marooned, The Pittsburgh Pirates
      0530: D. I recalled this dream just after the one below it. I'm just guessing at the time. The recall is poor because it got muddled by the subsequent dream. Still, this is the first time I've recalled two separate dreams at once. I'm stuck an a deserted island with three other people. Two are male, one female. It's a tropical island with lots of palm trees. It's more like Robinson Crusoe than it is Lost. There is a calm lagoon. I sit and talk with the woman overlooking the lagoon. We don't think we'll get rescued but I guess we do with an abrupt scene change. Some one tells me that the the Oakland A's beat the Pittsburgh Pirates in the World Series. I'm surprised and don't believe it at all. (This is just like a scene from Lost with Jack and the Boston Red Sox.)

      Cluttered Office
      0706: C. I'm in an office building working. My mother and father are there. I have my own office. Someone comes into my office and remarks how cluttered it is. It looks more like a bedroom crowded with furniture. There's a bed, a dresser, a desk, maybe a bunk bed, and some other furniture. It's so crowded you can't actually open any drawers or climb on the beds. There's only room for me to sit at the desk. I'm supposed to be working but I'm cleaning up the room instead.

      I take a bunch of stuff out to the back of the building to toss in the dumpster. There is a small patio lined with vines. At this point, the scene feels more like my old house in SAV. I meet my father out there. He asks "What are you doing around the humid dumpster?" I notice that it's bright, hot and humid outside. I lift and drop some things in the dumpster and then I notice flies and insects in and around it. I turn around and see bees flying around the flowers in the vines. I'm grossed out and run inside through a sliding glass door. There are a few insects crawling on the floor inside and I try to shoo them out. End.


      Virtual Reality Game With "Iceman"
      1119: C. I'm playing a first-person shooter game using futuristic virtual reality suits. The "real" world is a clean futuristic spaceship like Star Trek. The "virtual" game world is also futuristic but rougher, like Halo or Gears of War. The game takes place in a forest with sunlight spilling through the canopy. It reminds me of a map from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II. Both scenes are moderately well lit.

      So I'm playing this game with a team against another. On our team is Val Kilmer who is just like his character "Iceman" from Top Gun. I'm jealous of how good he is. We are beating the other team. The other team's captain is a mild-mannered middle-aged man. At one point, our team pulls out the lightsabers and chainsaws. But the other team stops the game and complains. They are afraid they will die for "real" if they are cut by a chainsaw. I think they should have to forfeit for this, but we keep playing without the gruesome melee weapons because Iceman is such a calm and confident guy. We win easily.

      We exit the game and are back on the spaceship. The captain of the ship looks like the chief instructor from Top Gun. He congratulates a few people on the team for their great play, especially Iceman. I don't get any praise. I only did okay. I feel jealous.
    15. Gomiko and bat research

      by , 09-26-2010 at 07:30 PM (The Midnight Train)
      I am biking through an alley in the late afternoon. The vendors are packing up and I am thinking about what to buy for dinner since my brother is away. I briefly see a black guy with a wooden cart.

      Scene change: I am now in New Zealand crossing the street on the corner of Cashel St and Colombo. I end up in a library. It is a cloudy day. I sit at this table. I see a person who left B-1 school a long time ago. He is blond and wears a blue t-shirt and looks like a real nerd. There is a guy with long black hair tided up sitting beside him. He also wears a black shirt. They are talking about how scientists still haven't got results because they are looking at the wrong side of bat behavior. Apparently some kind of study about bats.
      I see Naoko. Coming up to the table. I say, " you are Michiko?"
      She replies, "How did you come up with that? I am Gomiko." She then says something about her Dad that some how is related to me.
      Then the guy in black says, "What did you do to her Dad?"
      She sits at another table. I want to take this opportunity to talk to her but I am too shy.
      A cameraman and a black lady comes and stand behind me. The blond guy commands them to shoot from left to right the top half of this floor.
      I see a laptop on a little table behind the cameraman. It is mine and I show what I'm working on at university as a biology student to a friend who just appeared. There are heap of Word files and one says microbiology.
      I try to shut the computer down but then a picture of a bee cartoon comes up with fireworks going off around it. Then my phone rings and there are too many options on it and I can't turn it off. Turns out to be my phone alarm.
